III.Reading Comprehension

A

I was 14 when Mr.Ingram knocked on our farmhouse door in Sacred Heart，Okla.The old farmer lived about a mile down the road and needed help cutting grass.It was the first time I was actually paid for work-about 12 cents an hour，not bad when you consider it was 1939，a time when there was little business activity.Mr.Ingram liked the job I did and ended up hiring me to dig potatoes.I even helped when a baby cow was being born.One day he found an old truck that was stuck in the soft，sandy soil of the melon（瓜）field.It was full of melons that someone had tried to steal before their truck got stuck.Mr.Ingram explained that the truck's owner would be returning soon，and he wanted me to watch and lean.It wasn't long before a man from a nearby village，who had a terrible reputation（名声）for fighting and stealing，showed up with his two full-grown sons.They looked very angry.Calmly Mr.Ingram said，“Well，I see you want to buy some watermelons.”

There was a long silence before the man answered，“Yeah，I guess so.What are you getting for them？”

“Twenty-five cents each.”

“Well.I guess that would be fair enough if you help me get my truck out of here.”

It turned out to be our biggest sale of the summer，and an unpleasant，perhaps unfortunate，incident had been prevented.After they left，Mr.Ingram smiled and said to me，“Son，if you don't forgive（原谅）your enemies，you're going to run out of friends.” Mr.Ingram died a few years later，but I have never forgotten him or what he taught me on my first job.（）56.Which of the following best explains “ended up” as is used in the passage ？

A.enjoyed B.finished C.got into D.went on

（）57.The truck owners were angry because.A.they failed to get the melons away without being seen

B.they forgot to have their truck checked before they started

C.they had got too many melons on the truck

D.they knew they had a bad reputation

（）58.Why didn't the truck owners fight to get away the melons.A.The old farmer was a strong enemy.B.The price offered for the melons was very low.C.It was hard to start a fight against friendly people.D.It was necessary to get the truck out before anything

B

You get all sorts of demands，and the mark of a good hotel is to supply whatever is asked for without sounding surprised.If a guest asks for rubber glover（手套），you don't ask why.You say，“No problem.What colour do you want？”

There have been some demands which，much as I would have liked to fill，I couldn't.A Japanese businessman，for example，thought the manager of a hotel was like the captain of a ship so he asked me to marry him and the woman he loved.There was one time，however，we did help out.A young man thought that if he asked his girlfriend to marry him at the Ritz she would say yes.He asked us to pt the ring in a cake，and she accepted.Top hotels are used more and more to impress.They are used for doing business.If you've got something to sell，take your clients（客户）to the best hotel where the surroundings are quite helpful.A friend of mine working at Savoy Hotel tells the story about a man who gave him 5 pounds to say “ good morning，Mr.Smith” when he walked through the door with two other men.This he did，and could hear Mr.Smith saying，“I do wish they would leave me alone at this place.”

According to Julian Payne，the most powerful people in any hotel are the porters，who carry bags for hotel guests.“Porters can do almost anything.They can get you tables at the best restaurants r tickets for a popular concert.Don't ask me how they do it or what their deal is because I don't know.Most of them have been there for years.They know more about the history of the hotel and the guests than anyone else.They are invaluable.A head porter will come in even on his day off so he can say hello to someone he remembers visiting the hotel years ago.”

（）59.When guests ask for something strange，the manager of a good hotel would think_________.A.how he can meet their needs B.why they have such demands

C.what problems the hotel has D.who is the best person to go to

（）60.Which of the following examples explains “we did help out”？

A.The hotel bought a ring for a young lady.B.A Japanese married the woman he loved.C.The manager once acted as a captain.D.A young lady agreed to marry her boyfriend.（）61.By saying “I do wish they would leave me alone at this place，” Mr.Smith.A.showed that he disliked such people at the hotel

B.gave the impression that he was a constant guest

C.tried to make his clients feel sorry for him

D.sounded as if he was tired of such greetings

（）62.Why are the porters considered the most powerful people in expensive hotels？

A.they sell tickets for converts.B.they can complete difficult tasks.C.they know the history of hotels.D.They usually work in a hotel for a long time.C

Take a deep breath and spend a week with the Lee family in Minneapolis.The three older children-Anna，12，Nathan，9，and Kristian，7-play one sport or another almost all year round.（Lisa is only 1 so she gets a break here.）Anna's practicing football，volleyball，basketball and softball.Nathan and Kristian do them all except volleyball.In the summer，add on tennis and swim lessons.All of this means that dad，Darwin，a teacher，and mom，Joann，a nurse，spend a lot of time making sure everyone gets where he needs to be.Family dimmers？ Forget about it.A busy family timetable，says Barbara Carlson.A school teacher，has become the new thing that shows your status（地位）。“ It used to be a house or car，” says Carlson.“Now you say，' You' er busy？ You should see how busy we are.'”

In hope of getting their children into Harvard，many parents send their children to violin lessons at 3 and sign them up for tennis as soon as they're big enough to hold a bat.And that's just the warm-up.The real serious task begins as soon as they start school.Mr.Moffat，father of a nine-year-old boy，said，“It's important for children to learn honour and responsibility（责任），” he says.“It builds discipline（纪律性）and character.”

Maybe，but scientists say that too many outside activities destroy something children need even moreif they agree to spend 18 dollars a month on the company's educational toys and childcare books.“We want to build a seven-year relationship with those people，” said Matthew J.Estes，BabyCare's president.“It starts during pregnancy（孕期），when the anxiety and needs are highest.” BabyCare works on a one-to-one basis.Doctors，nurses，and teachers-paid by BabyCare-advise parents，explaining toys that are designed for children at each stage（阶段）of development to age six.BabyCare opened its first store in China last June in a shopping center in central Beijing and another near Beijing Zoo.It plans to have 80 stores in China within six years.It is a new model for China and develops a market in young children's education and health that no other companies are in.（）67.What do the first two paragraphs mainly tell us？

A.Educational toys and foreign toy markets.B.Problems with China's toy Markey and education.C.Reasons for pushing sales of educational toys in China.D.Baby population and various kinds of toys made in China.（）68.Which of the following is a fact according to the passage？

A.Club members buy BabyCare products for free child-care advice.B.Doctors in Beijing help in making BabyCare products.C.Parents are encouraged to pay $ 18 for club activities.D.BabyCare trains Chinese doctors at no extra cost.（）69.BabyCare is developing its business in China buy.A.opening stores in Beijing hospitals B.offering 18-month courses on child-care

C.setting up children's education centers D.forming close relationships with parents

Ronald：_________________.（）73.Peter： Did you miss the beginning of the concert yesterday？

Andrew：___________________.（）74.Simon： Could I see Dr.Brown，please？

People in beautiful rooms tend to give higher marks to photos of faces than people in ugly rooms The color and general appearance of a room have a deeper effect on the behavior of the people in it

The University of Kansas has studied the effects of the color of room on people’s behavior

Beautifully furnished, light-coloured rooms make people more comfortable than ugly, dark rooms 67.According to the passage, we may conclude that the whiter a room is ________.A.the longer people like to stay in it B.the sooner people in it will leave C.the more active people in it will become D.the more excited people 68.What is referred to as the “general appearance” in this passage is ________.how many broad windows a room has, through which sunlight might come in the size of a room whether there are beautiful walls in a room what the room looks like 69.This passage provides us with _______.A.a piece of scientific information B.a normal lesson C.an interesting test D.a piece of news 70.At least how many tests were carried out by the scientists referred to in this passage? A.Three B.Two C.Only one D.No one knows

Passage Three The water we drink and use is running short in the world.We all have to learn how to stop wasting our limited water.One of the steps we should take is to find ways of reusing it.Experiments have already been done in this field.Today in most large cities, fresh water is used only once, then it runs into waste system.But it is possible to pipe the used water to a purifying factory.There it can be filtered and treated with chemicals so that it can be used again, just as it were fresh from a spring.But even if every large city purified and reused its water, we still would not have enough.Then we could turn to the oceans.All we’d have to do to make use of the seawater on earth is to get rid of the salt.This process is called desalinization, and it is already in use in many parts of the world.71.The way to stop wasting our limited water is to ________.A.do experiments with water B.purify the used water and reuse it C.use fresh water once again D.make use of seawater 72.The following tells us how to reuse the used water.Which is the right order of the passage?

B.Two Solutions to the Problem of Water Shortage C.Stop Wasting Our Limited Water D.How to Make Use of Seawater

Passage Four Some people hate everything that is modern.They cannot imagine how anyone can really like modern music;they find it hard to accept the new fashions in clothing;they think that all modern painting is ugly;and they seldom have a good word for the new buildings that are being built everywhere in the world.Such people look for perfection in everything, and they take their standards of perfection from the past.They are usually impatient with anyone who is brave enough to experiment with new or to express himself or the age in materials original ways.It is, of course, true that many artists do not succeed in their work and instead produce works that can only be considered as failures.If the work of art is a painting, the artist’s failure concerns himself alone, but if it is a building, his failure concerns others too, because it may damage the beauty of the whole place.This does sometimes happen, but it is completely untrue to say, as some people do, that modern architecture is nothing.We can’t judge every modern building by the standards of the ancient time, even though we admire the ancient buildings.Technologically, the modern buildings are more advanced.The modern architect knows he should learn from the ancient works, but with his greater resources of knowledge and materials, he will never be content to imitate the past.He is too proud to do that.76.Some people hate everything that is modern because _______.A.they are aged B.they find it hard to accept modern things C.they take their standards of perfection from the Greek D.they look at things by the standards of the past 77.The writer of the passage thinks that ________.it is true to say artists fail in their work it is untrue to say artists fail in their work it is true to say some artists fail in their work it is true to say only painters fail in their work 78.The writer thinks the failure of a building _______.A.means nothing B.concerns others C.concerns only the artist D.concerns all the people in the world 79.The writer thinks that _________.we can’t judge buildings by the ancient standards

we can’t judge all the buildings by the ancient standards

we can’t judge all the modern buildings by the ancient standards we can’t judge modern buildings

80.Technologically, the modern buildings are more advanced.The sentence means _____.the ancient architects had no technology the modern architects use more advanced technology the modern buildings are advanced because they are completely different from the ancient buildings the modern buildings are more beautiful

Passage Two The Mother Goose Stories, so well known to children all over the word, are commonly said to have been written by a little old woman for her grandchildren.According to some people, she lived in Boston, and her real name was Elizabeth Vergoose.Her son-in-law, a printer named Thomas Fleet, was supposed to have published the famous stories and poems for small children in 1719.However, no copy of this book has ever been found, and most scholars doubt the truth of this story—and doubt, moreover, that Mother Goose was ever a real person.They point out that the name is a direct translation of the French “Mere I’ Oye.” In 1697 the Frenchman Charles Perrault published the first book in which this name was used.The collection contains eight tales, including “Sleeping Beauty,” “Cinderella,” and “Puss in Boots.” But Perrault did not originate these stories;they were already quite popular in his day, and he only collected them.66.What is suppssed to have happened in 1719? Elizabeth Vergoose wrote the first Mother Goose Stories.Thomas Fleet published the Mother Goose Stories.The Mother Goose Stories were translated into French.Charles Perrault published the first Mother Goose Stories.67.Most scholars consider Mother Goose to be _________.A.a real person B.a book written by a little old woman C.a collection by Elizabeth Vergoose D.a translation from French 68.When Perrault published the first book in 1679, _______.no story of the book had been known to people some stories of the book were already well known few people were interested in the stories of the book stories like “Sleeping Beauty” and “Cinderella” became popular

69.The name used in the first book published in 1679 is supposed to have been _______.A.Mother Goose B.Mere I’ Oye C.Elizabeth Vergoose D.Charles Perrault

70.On the basis of this passage, what may be concluded about the real origin of stories “Sleeping Beauty” and “Cinderella”? They were invented by Elizabeth Vergoose.They were invented by Thomas Fleet.They were invented by Charles Perrault.Their writers are unknown.Passage Three Banks are not ordinarily prepared to pay out all accounts;they rely on depositors(储户)not to demand payment all at the same time.If depositors should come to fear that a bank is not safe, that it cannot pay off all its depositors, then that fear might cause all the depositors to appear on the same day.If they did, the bank could not pay all accounts.However, if they did not all appear at once, then there would always be enough money to pay those who wanted their money when they wanted it.Mrs.Elsie Vaught has told us of a terrifying bank run that she experienced.One day in December of 1925 several banks failed to open in a city where Mrs.Vaught lived.The other banks expected a run the next day, and so the officers of the bank in which Mrs Vaught worked as a teller had enough money on hand to pay off their depositors.The officers simply told the tellers to pay on demand.The next morning a crowd gathered in the bank and on the sidewalk outside.The length of the line made many think that the bank could not possibly pay off everyone.People began to push and then to fight for places near the tellers’ windows, The power of the panic atmosphere was such that two tellers, though they knew that the bank was quite all right and could pay all depositors, drew their own money from the bank.Mrs Vaught says that she had difficulty keeping herself from doing the same.71.A bank run happens when _______.a bank is closed for one or more days too many depositors try to draw out their money at one time there is not enough money to pay all its depositors at one time tellers of a bank take their own money from the bank 72.The tellers in Mrs.Vaught’s bank were told to ________.explain why they could not pay out all accounts pay out accounts as requested make the depositors believe that the bank was stand pay out money as slowly as possible 73.The main cause of a bank run is _______.A.loss of confidence B.lack of money C.crowds of people D.inexperienced tellers 74.Which of the following did Mrs.Vaught say?

Passage Four One of the greatest problems for those settlers in Nebraska in the last quarter of the previous century was fuel.Little of the state was forested when the first settlers arrived and it is probable that by 1880, only about one-third of the originally forested area remained, down to a mere 1 percent of the state’s 77,000 square miles.With wood and coal out of the question, and with fuel needed year-round for cooking, and during the harsh winter months for heating, some solution had to be found.Somewhat improbably, the buffalo provided the answer.Buffalo chips(干粪块)were found to burn evenly, hotly, and cleanly, with little smoke and interestingly, no odor, Soon, collecting them became a way of life for the settlers’ children who would pick them up on their way to and from school, or take part in competitions designed to counteract their natural reluctance.Even a young man, seeking to impress the girl he wanted to marry, would arrive with a large bag of chips rather than with a box of candy or a bunch of flowers.76.What is the main topic of this passage? The solution to the Nebraska settlers’ fuel problem.Life in Nebraska in the late ninteenth century.The imporance of the American buffalo.Deforestation in Nebraska in the late nineteenth century.77.Which of the following statements is NOT true?
